Is it a powered hard drive? Is it a SSD? Is it a laptop (so low power) drive?

Are you wired or wireless?

I think its the combo of USB3 and using the wireless antenna in the Pi4. I going to try to test, but I realized yesterday that I have no open ports on my router. Just need the time to do it.

Raspberry Pi 4 setup: Moode Audio, Ethernet Cable, two SSD Harddiscs, NEO iDSD via USB 3 (plus ifi ipower)
I'm using the original Raspi PSU which has 3A I think.

I noticed I can't power the NEO iDSD throught the Raspi USB port, it needs the ipower to switch on. It works with a windows 10 computer USB power though.

Schiit Modi 3+ works with the Raspi setup without external power.

Sorry for the delayed reply!

I have just updated successfully from my MacBook. It took just a minute.

Testing with my Andromeda’s I can confirm that there is significant less noise. I can still hear some hiss in quite parts of the song but I believe it’s really a great improvement. 👍🏿

Chris Minasiasns from Totally Dubbed HD gives our NEO iDSD the once over on his YT Channel. Thanks, Chris. He gave us his Best Buy award so we're super chuffed.

Hello everyone, how is the neo competing alongside with zen can signature? considering only the dac section and not other aspects like the bt and the headamp of the neo....I already own the zen can and I am considering either the neo or the can signature. Is the neo worth the extra money if someone wants a standalone dac?

I should also mention that zen can is a total value for money amplifier and I do appreciate it everyday
